Product catalog summary
Overview: PRECIA MOLEN specializes in the design and manufacture of hopper scales, with a history dating back to 1867. These scales are used for loading, unloading, and internal transfer of loose products, and are designed to fit into small silo areas. The scales range from 30 to 4000 m³/h and are available in various materials including painted steel and stainless steel.
Specifications: The hopper scales are EC certified and can be installed in ATEX areas. They are available with the I 400 ABS control system, which allows for local or remote control. The scales are designed for indoor use with a temperature range of -10°C to +40°C, and offer a precision of +/- 0.1%.
Features: The I400 ABS system includes a transmitter and terminal for weight measurement and control. It supports both semi-automatic and automatic modes, and offers communication options such as Modbus RTU and USB connectivity. The system can also be integrated with supervision software for remote monitoring and control.
Optional Systems: The SCS (Self-Checking Scales) system provides automatic metrological checks using a secondary weighing channel, ensuring constant precision without interrupting operations. This system is suitable for commercial transactions and customs operations.
ATEX Certification: The scales are ATEX certified for use in explosive atmospheres, with specific models holding certificates LCIE 09 ATEX 3060 X and LCIE 04 ATEX 6067 X. The certification ensures compliance with safety standards for explosive environments.
Applications: Hopper scales are suitable for weighing dry granular products such as cereals, wood pellets, and waste. Specific models are available for products like fertilizer, sugar, and coal after a feasibility study.
Service and Support: PRECIA MOLEN offers global service and support, with technicians available worldwide to ensure compliance with regulations and provide rapid assistance.

PRECIA MOLEN has designed and manufactured hopper scales since 1867 and can assist with your loading and unloading operations or with the internal transfer of loose product. These scales are designed to fit simply into often-small silo areas. Our experience in the weighing of loose products has allowed us to develop a range of hopper scales ranging from 30 to 2000 m³/h, with EC certification to meet the requirements of the applicable machinery standard, and EX certification to allow scales to be installed in ATEX areas. Our scales exist in painted steel, with stainless steel components, with a steel or synthetic anti-wear liner and entirely in 304L or 316L stainless steel. The SCS function self-checks all weighing runs via a comparator, and is available on our ABS-XL models. This function can be used to regularly check that the main weighing channel is not drifting. This option guarantees the precision of this Automatic Weighing Instrument (AWI) working with no operator-validation of data. Our technical services can study any scientific project upon request: scales embedded in a floating weighing tower, scales for very high or low density products, scales for very high flow, or scales with a shape or size adapted to your requirements. Example: scales with a flow of 4000 m³/h and approved for Commercial Transactions. Our hopper scales can be used to weigh a wide range of dry granular products, which flow well, such as cereals, cake, wood pellets, waste and many derived products. After a feasibility study, specific models are available for fertiliser, sugar, liquids, coal, mineral ores, etc. Our range of hopper scales is built to last, robust and reliable, and fitted with ISO components ensuring long-term working order with little maintenance. All main parts are at eye height to simplify maintenance by your services Our scales are available with the I 400 ABS control system, designed and developed by our R&D teams. When combined with this electronic system, our hopper scales become "Non-constant discontinuous weighing totallers". These scales comply with applicable European MID regulations in terms of metrological certification and are approved for use in commercial transactions, classes 0.2, 0.5, 1 or 2. Potential precision for all of our models: +/- 0.1%. Hopper scales are designed for use indoors, sheltered from the effects of wind. The traditional temperature range for operation runs from –10°C to +40°C. This range may be adapted to your requirements upon request. The entire electronic I400 ABS range can offer functionalities enabling the use of a hopper scale with local or remote control thanks to computerised or automatic control systems. An I400 ABS terminal connected to a hopper scale may be connected to supervision software via a dedicated PC. Six hopper scales may be connected to this supervision software. The PC may be installed near to the hopper scales or remotely.
